This month Rosland Capital unveiled an exclusive new collection celebrating the PGA TOUR. The first coin to be released as part of this new series is the Presidents Cup coin, commemorating the U.S. team’s victory at Liberty National Golf Club last year. Including 1.5 ounce coins available in both gold and silver, the coins are offered together in a limited edition set of 500.

Each coin is considered legal tender, with the gold coin minted in 999.9 fine gold at a 40mm diameter and the silver coin featuring 999.0 fine silver at a slightly larger 50mm diameter. Both are minted by PAMP SA at their highest level of quality as proofs. The packaging for each coin contains further information on the competition, listing team members along with the Captains and Assistant Captains from both the U.S. and International teams. The New York skyline and Statue of Liberty feature on the front of the packaging, showcasing the unique view of Manhattan from Liberty National Golf Club.

“Recognizing that the PGA TOUR’s goal is to entertain and inspire fans, create outlets for volunteers to give back, generate significant charitable and economic impact in host communities, and grow the game of golf and provide opportunities for PGA TOUR players, we’re truly honored to have been chosen to play a part in this great team.”

First minted in 1989, the Austrian Philharmonic gold coin was initially created in just two sizes, a one troy ounce version and a quarter ounce, each minted in 99.99% pure gold. When first introduced, the Philharmonic was valued at 2,000 Austrian schillings, later changed to one hundred euros in 2002. Popular among bullion coins, the Philharmonic was declared the world’s best-selling gold coin by the World Gold Council in 1992, 1995, and 1996.

Since it’s first minting, the Philharmonic has retained its distinctive imagery depicting instruments from the famous orchestra. The reverse features four violins, a harp, a bassoon, and a Vienna horn, while the obverse is filled with the pipe organ from Vienna’s concert hall.

Additional sizes of the coin were produced beginning in 1991 with the introduction of a one tenth coin; a one half ounce coin followed in 1994. Several other unique sizes have been created since, including a commemorative 15th anniversary version of the coin in one thousand ounces, of which only fifteen were minted. A 20th anniversary coin was minted at 20 ounces, also in a limited production run. Finally, a 25th anniversary version at just 1/25 of an ounce was introduced in 2014. In 2008, the Austrian Mint began production of a silver version of the coin.

Rosland Capital has unveiled a new coin to commemorate America’s first purpose-built Formula One circuit: the Circuit of Americas coin, available exclusively from Rosland Capital. Beginning construction in 2011, the Circuit of the Americas was completed in 2012, featuring a Grand Plaza, 3.4 mile track, and a 251 feet observation tower captured on the face of the coin. Since its opening, the Circuit of the Americas has hosted concerts in the Austin360 Amphitheater, MotoGP races for the Motorcycle Grand Prix of the Americas, and Formula One races for the United States Grand Prix.

The Circuit of the Americas coin collection features a 2.5 ounce coin in both gold and silver. The gold version is a limited edition run, with only 250 minted by Swiss-based PAMP SA. The reverse face of the coin showcases the signature COTA observation tower, while the obverse features Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Each coin comes with protective packaging, a statement of fineness, and certificate number.

“What has been created at COTA, especially that wonderful iconic tower, is a lesson to us all in what can be achieved with focus and determination. We wanted to celebrate that achievement with coins of the highest design and production quality, as befits the Circuit of The Americas.”

Hosted at the legendary Autodromo Nazionale Monza, this year’s Italian Grand Prix saw Lewis Hamilton taking an early lead and ultimately finishing in first place. Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas clinched second place, bringing Mercedes their third one-two finish of the season. Sebastian Vettel and Ferrari finished in third place, relinquishing his leadership position on the table.

Lewis Hamilton lengthened his lead over rival Sebastian Vettel in Austin despite an initial challenge from the German in the first laps of the race. Hamilton quickly recovered and continued on to take first place on his favorite track, relegating Vettel to second place as Hamilton held a sixty-six point lead on the championship table.

While Vettel was mathematically unable to take table victory this year after Mexico’s Grand Prix results, that didn’t stop the German from finding victory in Brazil this year, taking the top place for Ferrari in a feat unseen for ten years. Rival Lewis Hamilton had a rocky start from the pits, missing the podium but making up sixteen places to take fourth.

As the CEO of Rosland Capital, and with long-standing involvement in the precious metal industry, Marin Aleksov has grown accustomed to being swift with his decision-making. Responsible for leading and advising a nimble team of sales people, Aleksov understands the importance of agility within an extremely dynamic market. In a recent interview with Ideamensch, Aleksov touched on his leadership within the Rosland Capital team and what keeps his entrepreneurial mind at work.

It is common knowledge, especially in business, that a team is only as strong as its weakest member. Luckily for Rosland Capital, Marin Aleksov spends ample time advising and strengthening internal teams and sales people, both new and seasoned. Even though Aleksov practices an open door policy with the newest members of the team, he prefers to get out of his office and spend time with the sales team. Not only does this provide essential learning opportunities and knowledge-sharing with the team, but it allows Aleksov to better advise and understand the day-to-day, ground level changes within the market.

Marin Aleksov is no stranger to emphasizing the empowerment and strength of the Rosland Capital team, specifically at the individual level. Aleksov acknowledged that a main component to growing a business, and a pivotal role in Rosland Capital’s success, lies within recognizing the potential in people. As opposed to multiple versions of the assumptive ideal employee, the diversity of the Rosland Capital team is a key strength within the current standing and the future of the company.

“I try to see the potential in people, rather than just focusing on their history and background. That has helped me build a world-class group from disparate backgrounds, rather than an assembly of people with matching resumes.”

Leaning on these talented people surrounding him, Marin Aleksov utilizes the Rosland Capital team to enact and bring life to his own entrepreneurial ideas.

Much like the advisement role Marin Aleksov takes on within Rosland Capital, he also takes the time to provide insight on how he would advise his younger self. A potential note to other budding entrepreneurs, Aleksov made a point to stress the importance of self-trust and self-awareness. According to Aleksov, “I’d tell my younger self to trust himself and strike off on his own earlier. We all feel insecure some of the time – we lack confidence in our own abilities – and we wait for right moment to try something new, which may never come.”

The Austrian One Gold Ducat coin has an extensive history dating back to the twelfth century, when it was originally minted for Roger II of Sicily. Originally created with an image of Jesus on the coin, the Gold Ducat was not produced in Austria itself until the 16th century, when it became the official legal tender of Austria. While intended to expire as legal tender in 1858, Austrian Emperor Franz Josef I approved the Ducat as a trade coin in 1857 to be used in overseas purchases. The coin was continuously produced until the start of World War I disrupted production in 1915, marking the last year of authentic Austrian Ducat coins.

The Austrian coat of arms, featuring the double-headed eagle

The obverse face of the coin depicts Austrian Emperor Franz Josef I, who ruled Austria and Hungary until his death in 1916. The reverse side features the Hapsburg dynasty symbol of the double-headed eagle, originally from the Holy Roman Empire. Each coin is minted in 23.75 carat gold, and the official gold content was set at .1106 troy ounces in 1779. Learn more about this historical gold coin at Rosland Capital.

One of the most desired coins in collector circles, the $20 Saint-Gaudens coin is named for designer Augustus Saint-Gaudens. While the design was completed in 1907, Saint-Gaudens was unable to see the coin minted, dying the same year. The final design features Lady Liberty on the obverse face, walking forward while embracing both a torch and olive branch. The Capitol is represented in the background on the left, with rays of sun shining up across the coin. The outside is ringed by forty-eight stars representing the forty-eight states in the U.S. at the time. The reverse showcases an eagle in flight and includes the phrase “In God We Trust”. While President Roosevelt had originally asked for the coin not to include the motto, public outcry moved Congress to force its inclusion on the coin.

The 1922 Saint-Gaudens double eagle was minted in both Philadelphia and San Francisco. Today, coin quality is rated by a professional grading service with each coin receiving a score on the Sheldon scale. Measuring quality of strike, visual appeal, luster, and other key aspects, the coin can receive up to 70 points on the scale. After being graded, the coin is sealed in a transparent slab for preservation and eventual sale.

Rosland Capital has debuted a new exclusive coin to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Williams Racing. Designed in collaboration with the Williams Racing team, the coin honors a history of excellence from one of Formula 1’s most successful racing teams. Winning 16 FIA Formula One Championship titles, Williams Racing has received nine titles for constructors and seven for drivers.

Minted by the Commonwealth Mint, each coin features Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse side and includes a certificate of authenticity. 400 individual coins as part of the Williams Racing silver collection have been made available for individual purchase.

Williams has become synonymous with success, innovation and courage throughout its glorious history in Formula 1. As such, we are thrilled to be able to contribute to the ’40 Years of Williams’ celebrations. We wanted to reflect the same level of quality and detail that goes into everything Williams does in these coins, something that I feel has been achieved via the expert artistry of our partners at the Commonwealth Mint. We know how important the work of Sir Frank and everyone at Williams has been not only to Formula 1 but to all of motorsport in general and we therefore feel very privileged to have been asked to produce this special range of coins in the team’s honour. This is truly a project that we are extremely proud to be associated with and we continue to wish the entire Williams family further success in the future.

Rosland Capital CEO Marin Aleksov presented the collection to Ayrton’s niece, BiancaSenna, as part of a series of celebratory events that recognized the first of his record six wins in Monte Carlo.

The collection includes 180 2.5 oz gold and 300 2.5 oz silver coins, as well as six 30 oz gold coins in celebration of the special 30th anniversary. Minted by Swiss-based PAMP S.A., each coin is individually crafted and displays an image of Ayrton Senna. A share of the proceeds will directly benefit the foundation.

“We are honored to be part of this wonderful celebration of the anniversary of Ayrton Senna’s first win in Monaco thirty years ago,” said Aleksov. “We know how important his legacy is to all Formula 1 –and indeed all sport – fans – and as such we feel very privileged to have been asked by the Ayrton Senna Foundation to produce this special range of gold and silver coins.”

Rosland Capital employees were in good spirits the morning of Sunday, April 30. Joined by CEO Marin Aleksov, they gathered at Wilson Plaza on UCLA’s campus bright and early for a special event, the Bruin Run/Walk.

In its 18th year, the annual event benefits Mattel Children’s Hospital UCLA Chase Child Life Program. Established in 1968, the program helps critically and chronically ill children and their families acclimate to the healthcare environment with the support from child life specialists.

Aleksov and his colleagues joined several hundred people from the community as they walked the 5k to raise money and awareness of the program.

In addition to participating in the run/walk, Rosland Capital was a sponsor of the event. In total, more than $75,000 was raised for the Chase Child Life Program.

Rosland Capital has supported UCLA in the past by partnering with UCLA’s Veteran Resource Office to provide education, wellness and financial resources for veteran students at the university.
